Apparently he nearly spat his porridge out. The only thing Dave, the representative of my country and me, and I will ever have in common, we both eat porridge.

You need to look at the bright side of this. It will keep a certain group of my countrymen - the ones who only watch Fox news - from visiting England.

I did a working holiday visa as my first entrance into NZ. It was for a year and I was allowed only temporary positions. Which wasn't ideal for me as I was looking to eventually stay in NZ (which I'm still working on). But they can be a useful way to get into a place and see a lot, while still having the option of working to earn more touristy spendy money.

As a Canadian you should be able to stay in any European country for upto 90 days as a visitor. Different countries might operate a different length of time but that seems to be the amount US/Canada/European countries allow people to stay. Id check the related countries immigration website though to be sure.

No idea about working holiday visas though.
Not quite - you can stay in the Schengen area for up to three months, but that encompasses quite a few countries. It does not include the uk, which has a 6 month limit, but many border officials will get antsy if you try and circumvent the stay limit by ducking out of the region and coming back in. It can be possible, though.
The availability /existence of guest visas and temporary working visas varies significantly by country. In most cases you will have to apply for one before you travel, from your place of permanent residence. So unless you're willing to so a scouting trip, return home and then aplly, I'd advise against coming over until you've figured out where you want to go.
If you're under 27(? Maybe 29?), the uk had a good working holiday visa program (called youth worker visa or somethibg like that) which is pretty much ideal for commonwealth citizens. Remember that Europe is easy to get around in once you're here, so even if your visa is for one country you don't have to stay there indefinitely.
thanks for the replies everyone! sounds like i should just apply for the visa right now. i do plan on mostly being in the schengen area, maybe i should apply in spain. i hear they're pretty liberal about squatting there and there's some interesting culture behind it.. has anyone stayed in a squat while traveling?
edit: nevermind, apparently spain and canada are kinda iffy on their visa terms. maybe i'll just go with the uk, since everywhere else seems to be only one year maximum duration

Since this is just too god damn funny, dude has now said that hearing that shit repeatedly was "like waterboarding".

No, no, he was asking about Cheri Alaah. She's a huge international pop star with stores just for her merchandise called Cheri Alaah Zones.
It's a common misunderstanding.
Had lunch near Arty Bees. Ice Cream by town hall. And soon dinner on Queens wharf.
Very pleasant first day.

i don't remember seeing a tree ghost while in scotland but that's about it.
Did you go out to Palliser? Did you stop at the Pinnacles and walk the Dimholt road?
We did indeed go to the Cape. We missed the Pinnacles on the way back, sadly. I saw them going in, but they weren't sign-posted on the way out.
But that drive. Holy hell.

Truly an amazing trip, a fantastic wedding with great friends, and a great holiday. Cannot wait to head back down that way again.

Relevant to this thread maybe: Canadian passports under black light.

It still ended up better than the original concept, which is that the black light revealed Stephen Harper cuddling with kittens.
I'm glad we don't have that in the US. The last thing I need is customs finding all the semen stains on my passport.
